Tony's living nightmare worsens as he's arrested in the Village for sexual activity with a child. Mandy attempts to calm his fears, but he's convinced he's about to lose everything.

Arriving at work, a paranoid Tony is determined to move on with his life. However, this comes crashing down around him when Calvin and Mark show up unannounced and arrest him, much to Cindy's delight.

At the police station, Mark uses all his efforts to force Tony to confess to his crime before eventually releasing him. Back at Il Gnosh, a cold and tired Holly spots Tony's return. Heading over, she tells him about Cindy failing to pick her up from school and asks if she can wait with him. A frantic Cindy and Mandy are searching for Holly and discover her in Il Gnosh. Having witnessed his earlier arrest, Cindy misreads the situation and flies at Tony, telling him to stay away from Holly. A devastated Tony falls into Mandy's arms, as the reality of his situation finally hits home - he's about to lose everything.

Carmel's excited - it's her first day as school liaison officer, but Calvin's clearly occupied with other things, leading her to ask whether he regrets marrying her. Mark's pleased when he gets a positive ID from Louise on Tony leaving the Loft with Theresa. Offering him some extra work in CID, Mark invites Calvin on something he's got planned later and a grateful Calvin jumps at the chance. At home with Carmel, Calvin tells her about his chance of promotion as things look to be on the up for them.

An absent-minded Cindy gets Holly ready for school, but she's more interested in entering a competition on the TV and fails to acknowledge that Holly's finishing half day today. Mandy's guilt is growing over her affair with Warren and she beseeches him to do something about it. Allaying her fears, Warren tells her he needs a bit more time to sort things financially, but they will leave forever.

Back at the flat, a bored Cindy tries on Louise's wedding dress. Approving of the design, she's prancing round, mid pose when Mandy and Louise arrive. Attempting to hide, not only is Cindy caught red-handed, but she also manages to spill red wine all over the dress. Understandably, Louise explodes in a fit of rage and Cindy makes her escape…

Leila's thrilled with Justin's Christmas tree and enlists his help in taking it back to halls. On the way they run into Archie, who is in the process of hiding from his latest conquest who appears to be stalking him. Leila's furious with Archie for ignoring the latest hapless victim of his charms and for decorating her tree with beer cans and ring pulls. Escaping her wrath, Archie and Justin head off to the pub, leaving a put upon Leila to fix the mess.

In The Dog, Cindy finds it hard to curb her temper when Louise and Warren arrive for lunch. Throughout the meal, Louise becomes increasingly drunk, resulting in a furious Warren telling her to leave. Back at the flat, their argument escalates and turning physical, an out of control Louise attacks Warren. In a rage, he walks out of the flat leaving Louise shaking with fear when it dawns how far she's pushed him. Calling Mandy, Warren tells her to get her stuff together, they're leaving tonight.

In a spin, Mandy can't quite believe her ears as she contemplates her future with Warren, away from Hollyoaks. As Mandy waits for Warren's arrival, unbeknown to her, her lover lies unconscious…

Calvin is looking forward to helping Mark out on a raid, buoyed up by the fact he's finally joined the big boys. However, he falls foul of Gaz's humour when he discovers a gang of hoodies spraying graffiti on the skate park. Challenging Gaz, Calvin's temper is pushed to the max when he finds himself the victim of racist remarks.

Meeting up with Mark, Calvin soon realises this is no official raid when they head into the Loft with baseball bats. Unable to warn Warren what's going down, Calvin's horrified to find himself thrust to the forefront and forced to beat up Warren…

As Warren lays badly beaten, leaving a desperate Mandy waiting, Calvin makes an emergency services call before fleeing the scene.

At school, Russ is impressed that Carmel's taken to her new role as school liaison officer with gusto. With his own head full of doubts as to whether he really wants to be a teacher, he's full of admiration for her. Trouble is brewing, though, when Gaz sees a naïve Carmel as an easy target and she soon falls foul of his tomfoolery.

Sarah's struggling to cope with her feelings towards Zoe after their lesbian encounter.

Rushing to hospital, Louise is mortified by her behaviour yesterday and throws herself into Warren's arms. Mark pays a visit to Warren and is surprised to see Mandy also in attendance. After a barbed comment regarding Mandy, Warren is quick to put Mark in his place and the pair reach a mutual understanding - this doesn't end here.

Alone with Warren, Mandy is devastated to hear that he's changed his mind about leaving and wants Louise, not her. As she witnesses his love for Louise first-hand, a humiliated Mandy silently breaks down as she realises that once again, she's alone…

Calvin's relieved when Warren finally regains consciousness and discovers he's in hospital. Ensuring Warren's not looking for revenge for causing him his injuries, Calvin's relieved when they reach a mutual understanding and their friendship is bound tighter than ever. Warren and Calvin discuss last night's assault by Mark and decide that it'll be best for Calvin to stay onside with him - it can only benefit both of them.

At home, Carmel's been worried sick all night, so when Calvin finally arrives, she lets rip with her frustrations. Upon hearing about Warren's attack from Louise, she suspects Calvin's involvement and her anger at Calvin builds. Confronting Calvin, Carmel only serves to wind him up even more and leads him to lie again. Carmel's aware she's been lied to, but there's nothing she can do about it as once again, Warren's hold over Calvin causes tension and resentment between the newlyweds.

Mandy's left puzzled by Warren's disappearance but puts on a brave face in front of Cindy. As Mandy walks through the village with Cindy, she bumps into Ravi and begs him for information. When she hears about Warren's attack, Mandy heads off to the hospital with Ravi's words ringing in her ears. In The Dog, Cindy enjoys flirting with Rhys nearly as much as having Suzanne and Josh as an audience. As Cindy's behaviour increasingly grates on Suzanne, it has the opposite effect on Rhys and the pair are soon having fun behind closed doors.

Leila's dismayed to find that someone has been stealing her advent calendar chocolates as well as pilfering food from halls. Convinced Archie is responsible, she barges into his room, only to find he has an alibi - his stalker. Leila's behaviour convinces Justin and Archie that she's a tad neurotic and attempting to allay Justin's fears, she apologises for her odd behaviour. Her one wish is for Christmas to be perfect for them, but events seem to be conspiring against her.

Louise listens with disbelief as Mandy tells her they've been sleeping together for months.

Enraged by the revelation, Louise slaps Mandy across the cheek. As the bitterness comes to the fore, Mandy tells Louise some home truths - namely that she's a drunk and that's why Warren's been forced to look for love elsewhere! She goes on to tell her about their proposed new life together and how they were on the verge of running away together the night he was beaten up. As Louise processes this latest revelation, Mandy leaves her to it and when a groggy Warren finally makes an appearance, we wonder what Louise's next move will be…

Calvin's struggling to cope with the mess he's got himself in and Carmel's not quite sure how to act around him. In Evissa, Carmel's façade cracks and she breaks down on Bel, confiding her fears that Calvin doesn't love her anymore. Seizing the moment, Bel suggests a shopping trip as part of the plan to make things up with Calvin.

With a full-blown argument in progress, a furious Louise lambasts Mandy for ruining her life, before telling her that she can never leave Warren because he killed Sean.

As the Neville and Suzanne argue about who's going to sack her, Cindy walks through the door.

Putting on the performance of her life holds no sway with Suzanne who sends her on her way. Rhys embarks on a plan to get Cindy her job back and sets Holly up as 'little orphan Annie' begging in the village. Recognising Neville as a soft touch, Rhys takes full advantage of his dad's nature and Holly doesn't let him down with her acting skills, resulting in Cindy being made duty manager of The Dog, much to Suzanne's horror.

With ructions in halls over more missing food, a smug Leila announces she's caught the thief red-handed on her spycam. With her laptop having technical problems, Leila calls on Anita for help.
